What's the difference between the $25.00 and the $49.00 game?

As I looked up this game on Amazon right now to see the versions to which you are referring, there is not difference except the price. The only thing different than the original game (which is the one you asked about) is the Telestrations 12-player party pack. As the name suggests, it includes 12 notepads, markers, erasers, etc, which makes it nice for large groups. Also, the notepads have 12 pages in them to accommodate the larger group rather than the 8 pages included in the original game. If you're getting the original 8-player game, go with the $25.

My guess is that this is the R&R; version. If you want a specific version, you can probably find someone selling it on BGG.

Hi Kendyl,Yes this is the listing for the "original" larger game. You will see that there is also a statement that there is a newer version - this is the one one you do NOT want to purchase.

I don't know yet as I just ordered them too, but this is only slightly more expensive than most of their expansion packs. My kids love the game so much that a few more dollars is okay with me for a quality strategy game the whole family plays together. (Especially since shipping is free for me, and there is no store within my state that sells these games.)

Check with Kruk Cards, but this should be the Premiere/base edition of the game. This is the one I ordered, and in answering your question, I can see the correct box in the picture provided with the question.

Like Trent said, that is what happens. You can purchase the game in the store, I've seen plenty at around the retail price (usually $23 or so).

My thought on this is you want to look at reveiws first. But if the used game is about the same price as a new game you are better to go with new. hope this helps.

I have not purchased the other. The description appears the same though. I also saw this version for $29.99 with free shipping.

It must be the same as a retail version of the game. When I purchased mine it was exactly like the ones from the stores, and it was a full color edition when it was shipped to me. No real rule changes according to the package either. You just add it to the original Munchkin deck(s) and play on. There are some new twists within the cards themselves, but nothing drastic enough to require a brand new way of playing.

I believe it's the same game! I bought this game a long time ago (February/2008), and the bfg edition is more actual.The 15.99 is game to download by Steam account. The 39.99, you buy the box of the game (like me).

Apparently you get the bow earlier in the game and a few other features, which didn't mean a lot, honestly I only bought the Hunter's edition because it was pretty much the same price as the regular edition, but if there is a cheaper version of the original $10 or so cheaper, I would say that is a batter choice.

Not 100% sure but I think the difference is that the graphics comes with a cozy foot cover..I really wanted it but.... I never use it so I so t think it's worth the extra $

I think that the numbers are seperate in all the editions. They are circles that you place onto the board (randomly so that every game is different).

The newer version is virtually identical to the old. It actually has more words (I think) because each card has 4 'Taboo' words. The only thing I didn't like about the new game were the card holders and the buzzer. The card holders are not separated, so that is inconvenient. The buzzer is no longer a buzzer, but rather it sounds like a dog toy when you squeeze it. So the game is the same, if not better. But the accessories are not what I would have liked. Hope this helps!

$45 is not really that bad for a game that you get a lot of longevity out of IMO. Plus it's a gorgeous game and a highly re-playable family game. Think of it as "How much would I spend with the family going to the movies?"

Wonderful! Thank you! I did not want to pay for the same games (my girls have to have whatever the other does) so this is great news!
